Met Office Issues Three-Day Weather Warning for Snow and Freezing Temperatures

Snow and Freezing Temperatures Expected Across England, Wales, and Southern Scotland with Three-Day Met Office Warning Starting This Weekend

The warning takes effect from midday on Saturday (4 January) and will remain in place until 9 am on Monday (6 January).

“Heavy snow may cause some disruption over the weekend,” said the Met Office.

The warning covers the majority of England, except for the farthest reaches of the South West (Cornwall and Devon), southern coastal areas, and the east – Norfolk and Suffolk.

Northern Ireland is excluded in its entirety, as is much of Scotland, although the warning does cover Edinburgh, while nearby Glasgow and its airport are just outside the warning area.
Parts of the Midlands, Wales, and northern England could see up to 5cm of settled snow, with higher areas like Wales and the Pennines potentially experiencing 20-30cm. The Met Office also warns of strengthening winds, which could cause drifting snow.

Later in the warning period, the concern becomes ice as milder air moves north, whereby snow showers could turn into spells of freezing rain – particularly in the south.

The coldest spells are likely to be on Saturday when temperatures could fall to -1C or -2C. Temperatures are expected to be around 5C below the early January average.

It follows prolonged foggy weather over the Christmas and new year period, which affected flights in and out of several airports, including Manchester, Cardiff and, most notably at Gatwick.
There was also flooding over the turn of year period in northwest England and Greater Manchester, prompting emergency services to declare a major incident, while new year’s celebrations in northern England and Scotland were called off owing to forecasts of high winds and heavy rain.
